Orange Tree Samples has released Evolution Mellow Mando, a mandolin sample library powered by Native Instruments' Kontakt Player. They say:
Evolution Mellow Mando was recorded using a 1917 A-style mandolin that delivers a warm, earthy tone. When sampling the mandolin, we meticulously captured its full dynamic range. When playing softly, you get the feathery sound of the pick brushing across the strings, while playing loudly evokes the instrument's lush, woody sustain.
The instrument is based on our Evolution engine, which provides you with built-in strumming patterns, a customizable articulation mapping system, and a collection of effects. Evolution Mellow Mando includes factory presets for a variety of ready-to-use mandolin tones.
Evolution Mellow Mando was developed in collaboration with Rosewood Recording Company in Utah. Guy Randle, the owner and recording engineer at Rosewood Recording Company, incorporated analog audio equipment to emphasize desirable tonal qualities of the mandolin. Evolution Mellow Mando includes both the as-recorded signal as well as an enhanced signal.
Key features:
- Over 10,000 samples totaling 7.2 GB of uncompressed samples.
- Articulations including sustains, misfretted sustains, palm mutes, fully muted notes, and harmonics, plus performance effects like muted strums, body hits, and more.
- Legato samples for slides, hammer-ons, and pull-offs.
- Integrated pattern engine with ready-to-use mandolin rhythms.
Intro Price: $139 until November 14th, 2024 (Reg. $179). Evolution Mellow Mando is powered by the free Kontakt Player.
